Didn’t Cain Velasquez get released? He was indeed.

I love how Charlotte needs to be Kayfabe injured before doing the job for anyone.

WWE is continuing to be really good
Orton is just great right now he's doing everything right,his and Edge's promos were great tonight.
Don't mind having Ziggler back on Raw and him getting a title shot. I wish it was Sonya who came with him instead of Roode but can't get everything you want I guess.
MVP,Lashley and Apollo has been good.
Asuka and Profits title matches were fun,glad we got new contenders for the Tag wouldn't mind if we see these three teams have a nice month or two fued.
I thought Sasha was gonna go after Io's title so I'm glad I was wrong but that wouldve been a great match but at least Io won't lose her title to a main roster woman.
I guess they leading to Liv/Ruby vs Nattie/Lana can't say I'm to interested in that.

Raw was pretty darn good tonight.
Edge is delivering the best promos of his career. Wow was he on tonight. Orton has been great lately too.
The men’s tag title match was good. Throughout all the competition stuff, you could have forgotten that the Street Profits and Viking Raiders are really good teams. They reminded everyone that tonight.
Asuka and Charlotte had another really good match, Great to see Asuka win by submission.
Enjoyed the Apollo Crews stuff. Good to see him getting some spotlight.
Great swerve with Sasha challenging Asuka. They fooled a lot of people with that one, including me.
I don’t mind Drew vs Dolph. We are in an era of wrestling where people ask for, and receive title shots. It happens on Raw, Smackdown, NXT, and AEW. It happens everywhere.
Seth is doing some good work himself these days, and it was good to see Aleister and Carrillo back on TV.
Good Raw all around.

EVERYTHING Orton is currently doing is working. He’s been solid gold. they finally have a good storyline for him to work with. and obviously it helps that he's not wrestling pointless tag matches in between the big events. His work with Kofi last year was really solid as well. You really just need to give him stuff he actually wants to do and is interesting. He’s at the point in his career when he doesn’t have anybody to impress so he’s not gonna jump on every feud and give it his all, unlike the guys clawing for TV time would. At the end of the day, Orton more than likely does not want to phone in it like he has been at times for the last 5 years but the material and feuds he was given were trash, such as putting Mahal over 3x. When he’s put into actual interesting programs though, he’s one of the absolute best in the entire business

I love how Charlotte needs to be Kayfabe injured before doing the job for anyone. She’s real life injured

Why not pretend she isn’t injured and let Asuka go over clean before letting Charlotte take time off to heal. Instead they made it a story and Asuka finally beating Charlotte 1v1 will have this “injury” story hanging above it.

She could’ve just been announced as injured after the match instead of going into with an “injury” from earlier in the night

It’s being reported that Charlotte is having surgery and is expected to miss a few months. That’s why they ran the injury story. No conspiracy theory here.

so because RAW was good that means people need to give credit to Prichard right?

Another good episode. One thing that I think is important to give credit where credit is due, is that these shows have been consistently solidly booked since the lockdown.
Legitimately completely forgot that Drew and Dolph used to be a tag team until they brought it up. I'm glad Drew is looking as incredible now as he should have done from the start, but reminds me that they didn't half drop the ball when they called him up by pairing him with Dolph. Either way, it'll still be nice to see Ziggler VS McIntyre for the title. I think this is the first feud since Drew won the title that I've had interest in.
I was intrigued by a Nia/Charlotte feud, until it was reported that it's to write Charlotte off TV. Just when I thought WWE was finally starting to book feuds for women not centred around a title.
A Riott Squad reunion feels too soon, but not a big deal if that's where this goes.
The Golden Role Models' post-match promo was genius, and brilliantly delivered by Sasha. She really had me going there. Sasha VS Asuka is going to be an incredible match, I'm all for it. If we can get Golden Role Models VS Kabuki Warriors (or Sky Pirates) mixed in, then all the better! I'm glad Golden Role Models retained last night, but I'd like to see the titles go to the IIconics when they inevitably do drop them.

Sasha Banks who is a part of SmackDown. wrestling for Raw women's tile how does that make sense so much for the brand split. Next she will be wrestling for the bathroom tile and the ceiling tile.
